Serving at Dominion Boys Home

We recently had the privilege of hosting one of our community cookouts at Dominion Boys Home, where our brothers served meals to the young men there, supported individuals experiencing homelessness, and delivered food to Mobile Meal recipients across the area. These outreach events are about more than a plate of food — they're about sharing hope, encouragement, compassion, and the love of Christ with the people we serve.

A Day of Compassion in Woodruff

On Saturday, June 13th, Brothers United For Change gathered in Woodruff, SC for a community cookout — serving the homeless, the less fortunate, and Mobile Meal recipients in our area. A huge thank-you goes out to Tractor Supply in Woodruff for allowing us to use their parking lot. Because of everyone who showed up, donated, prayed, cooked, served, and supported — lives were impacted, meals were shared, and love was felt by every person we encountered.

Making a Difference Together: Food Drive & Clothing Drive

Brothers United For Change has wrapped up our second food drive of the season, and our community showed up in a big way. Thanks to everyone's generosity, we filled a vehicle to the brim with food donations, all delivered to a local facility serving people experiencing homelessness. We're not stopping there — our clothing drive is now underway, collecting clean, gently used clothing to help individuals and families facing difficult circumstances.

Brotherhood. Purpose. Change.

A few snapshots from a recent Brothers United For Change Thursday morning meeting — and what an incredible morning of connection, encouragement, and growth it was. Our weekly gatherings are simple: brothers of every background coming together for honest conversation, prayer, and accountability. No pretense, no performance — just men showing up for one another. We'd love for you to be part of it. Join us Thursday mornings at 7:00 AM at The Palms on White.
